tion occasioned this morning by the find
ing of an infant child in the rear of the
Christian Church. A couple of little
boys, sons of d. L. Pickrel and Frank
Colby. were playing in the alley, when
they discovered something they thought
was skined rabbit, wrapped in piece
of paper, over in the Church lot. The
Colby boy, in a playful spirit picked it up
and tossed it over the fence. Imagine
| their surprise when they discovered that
it was baby. The Coroner took the
case, and Frank French of the baby,
which he buried. A girl named Annie
Kimball THAT is the name given us] was
suspicioned, and was found, but when
wanted as a witness had disappeared.
She had been working at Mr.. Lambert's
near where the child was found, and on
the morning of its birth did large
amount of scrubbing and other hard
work. Judge Miller has purchased the
Minor Copeland farm, a mile and a half
from town. This is a very nice little
place, little over forty acres, well set in
grass. These long winter evenings are
suggestion of freside stories, and the re-
Iation of wonderful experiences. A
number of men who had formerly been
farmers were engaged thus, and the
subject was wool. Men present had
seen the yield of a single sheep, at one
clipping, reach all the way from nine
pounds up to forty pounds. One gentle
man had seen forty-pound yield. Such
a sheep would certainly be valuable
kind of an animal to have upon farm

supper of some kind.
SUNDAY.-A dull, gloomy day. The
cold wave expected by many has not
waved yet. A fair attendance at Churches
and Sabbath Schools. :. AT one of our
Churches tonight the Minister was
compelled to address some young ladies
in the congregation requesting them to
be quiet. This is forgetfulness, as the
good man said, and should be guarded
against.
MoNDAY.-Between four and five
o'clock this morning the fre-bel1 sounded,
and is was discovered that the residence
on the farm of Widow Mitchell was burn
ing down. The property was totally |
destroyed, being so far gone when first |
that aid was impossible. The
engine was not, of course, taken out.....
A number of G. A. r. boys marched to
the residence of Daniel Kronk, tonight.
with a few substantial testimonials of |
their regard Mr.. Kronk is an old soldier
who has had lots of sickness in his
family, and though he has not called on
the boys for any help. they took the
matter into their own hands and spent a
lalf-hour pleasantly with Mr.. and Mrs.
Kronk.

who threw her child in an alley a few
lays ago.

Stephen Dieterich, of Camp Creek,
Pike County, had a pet Scotch Terrier
dog which in playing with him, bit him
on the lip. Nothing was thought of the
matter until few days ago, when
Dieterich became conscious that he had
symptoms Of hydrophobia. He immedi-
ately went to Cincinnati for treatment.
Just forty-seven days after having been
bitten, he died, with the usual paroxysms,
barking, swapping. and the like. He was
taken to his former home in Pike County,
for burial. Cases of hydrophobia have
come to be regarded as somewhat myth
ical, but this seems to be a genuine

The Machine Shops.
Progress And Prospects of The Hay
Press Works!

We met, on Monday, Mr.. Peter Miller,
of the Springfield Engine and Thresher
Company, gentleman who is thoroughly
conversant with the various kinds of
agricultural machinery in this country,
and who has travelled over twenty-five
States as agent for some of the best
factories. To our inquiry regarding the
Hay Press Works, he replied "There are
large number of threshers, engines, and
similar machinery, of different patents
made in this country, yet the factories
continue to run. There is but one Hay
Press regarded as a successful machine.
The Wood Machine is far simpler in con-
struction, and will show far greater
speed. 1t will only need a systematic
introduction in the market, to make an
excellent trade for it. believe the Wood
Machine embodies the right principle,
and will shortly be the machine for baling
straw and hay. 1 would, however, have
a first-class Repair and Machine Shop in
connection with the Press Factory"
Such is the opinion of an old machine
man, one thoroughly acquainted with the
agricultural machinery trade. About
two hundred of the lots are now sold, one
hundred and thirty-eight of them in the
corporation. The sales are going on.
Many persons are considering the matter,
and will doubtless soon buy. One point
we would call attention to-the lots to be
sold all lie north of Horse Creek, a
beautiful, rolling stretch of country.
How would this great enterprise
benefit the farmer? We are told that
some two thousand head of cattle, and
many sheep. were shipped to Springfield
during the past year, besides the hundreds
going east. Why not have a greater
market at home, and save the cost of
shipping? We might have greater |
meat market-a greater market of every |
kind. But it is scarcely necessary to |
argue this point. All will admit the |
benefit of great factory in any COM
This valley needs machine |
shop, and the agricultural interests need
the machine Messrs. Wood and Coffman
offer. 1t will go into market with but
one competitor, and that by comparison
and inferior machine. Other enterprises
have been discussed the benefits of which
were matters of conjecture. With the
Wood Coffman Baling Machine, there is
no doubt or question. The machine is
it, and give the farming
interests the best machine in the world
We think a rousing "yesP' will be the
answer. We will speak more at length
this machine hereafter.
